Abstract
Studies have shown that divorce cases are becoming rampant or occurring at alarming rate and one of the processes that is believed could have a positive impact on marriage or reduce these accelerated divorce rates is pre-marital counselling. Pre-marital Counselling has been defined as a procedure that aims to equip couples with information on how they could advance their relationship once they are legally married.This case study reports the findings of a study conducted by one of the authors for his master’s degree thesis. In the case study which intended to explore perceptions on the role of pre-marital counselling and marriage stability, a total of 23 participants from one village near the capital city of Gaborone (8 married, 8 single, 7 divorced) responded to an interview guided by semi structured questions. The twenty three participants were selected through purposivelysampling and snowballing.
